So many layers to this, but one of them is he thinks medical science is old enough that the word "womb" is not only a part of the etymology of "woman", but it also has the modern meaning as well. Like even when "womb" gets used in Shakespeare (e.g. in macbeth) I'm pretty sure it's a generic term for abdominal region, like the knowledge of the internal anatomy until the 16th century really only went as far as "lady, you got a baby in your belly".
